Natural Cultural Cultural Function A scarf is a fashion accessory and thus a decorative object Creation Purpose The scarf was made for a gift. Technique Scarf was made in nuno felting technique, which is a popular technique in contemporary textile art, allowing for the creation of lightweight yet warm garments and accessories. The technique allows combining of lightweight fabric—such as silk or chiffon—with wool fibers. The red wool is integrated into the fabric through a process of wet felting, where wool fibers are gently worked into the fabric using soap, water, and agitation. This results in a unique texture, with areas of soft, raised wool contrasting against the smooth, transparent fabric. Material Source The craftwoman who made the scarf sources her materials mainly from Italy. Conecept Anja Musek says that her medium of expression is wool, and that she finds inspiration mainly in nature. Škofja Loka was also known for hatmaking, where the knowledge of wet felting was used by hatters to make the bases for their hats. Production Quality Scarves are Anja Musek's best-selling products, and it takes her about two days to make one. She makes them to order and on demand, and has a few made in advance. She makes between 5 and 10 a month.

Material Cow's milk, rennet, salt Natural Cultural Cultural Function It is a food product and a traditional way to preserve domestic milk production Creation Purpose Retail sale Technique The milk delivered to the cheese factory is stored in an outdoor tank at temperatures below 4 degrees Celsius. The following morning, it is pasteurized using a pasteurizer, subjecting it to 72 degrees Celsius for 5 seconds, which eliminates bacteria and microorganisms. Subsequently, the pasteurizer pours the milk into curdling vats, where it is maintained at an average temperature of 27-28 degrees Celsius, ideal for producing this type of cheese. Once in the vats, the milk is left for 3 to 4 hours to allow its pH to drop to a level of 4.5-5. Afterward, rennet is added. Originally, the rennet was of animal origin, though nowadays it is produced in laboratories. The amount used is 45 milliliters of rennet per 1,000 liters of milk, representing a very small quantity. Traditionally, in the production of afuega’l pitu cheese, two processes can be followed, historically documented and related to the curdling process. It is possible to curdle without rennet by utilizing temperature differences and pH reduction. However, the issue with this curd, known in Asturian as leche presa, is that it has much less consistency. If poured into a mold with holes (barreña), the curd escapes through the openings. For this reason, a piece of cloth (trapu) is used to strain the whey when pouring the curd. If rennet is used, the curd gains greater consistency and can be directly placed into the barreñas to finish draining the whey. Rennet (cuayo in Asturian) is a digestive enzyme that enables milk coagulation, traditionally obtained from the stomach of ruminants. However, in the past, this enzyme was also extracted from the intestines of pigs, which were slaughtered at home for domestic consumption during the traditional pig-slaughtering (matanzas). The curd of Afuega’l Pitu cheese is of an acid-lactic or mixed type, as the milk coagulates due to the pH reduction caused by acidity, with rennet aiding in the process. Once the milk is placed in the curdling vat, it is left to rest for 24 hours Material Source The milk comes from pasture-based farms located in villages near the cheese factory Conecept The 'Trapu roxu' is one of the traditional varieties of Afuega’l Pitu cheese, produced in the region where the cheese factory is located.

Its shape, resembling that of a small pumpkin, is a result of the production process. To achieve this, the fresh cheese is kneaded and wrapped in a cloth (Trapu), tied at the top to allow the whey to drain, and then placed in the maturation chamber.The cheese's consistency varies depending on its degree of maturation, as does its color, which changes from white to yellowish over time. Its rind is natural, and as it matures, after 30 days, the mold ‘geotricum candida’ appears, originating from the milk itself.

Its conical shape is due to the mold used in its production, called ‘barreña’. The cheese's consistency varies depending on its degree of maturation, as does its color, which changes from white to yellowish over time. Its rind is natural, and as it matures, after 30 days, the mold ‘geotricum candida’ appears, originating from the milk itself. It has a slightly acidic and mildly salty taste, is creamy, and quite dry.

Material Cow's milk, rennet, salt Natural Cultural Cultural Function It is a food product and a traditional way to preserve domestic milk production Creation Purpose Retail sale Technique The milk delivered to the cheese factory is stored in an outdoor tank at temperatures below 4 degrees Celsius. The following morning, it is pasteurized using a pasteurizer, subjecting it to 72 degrees Celsius for 5 seconds, which eliminates bacteria and microorganisms. Subsequently, the pasteurizer pours the milk into curdling vats, where it is maintained at an average temperature of 27-28 degrees Celsius, ideal for producing this type of cheese. Once in the vats, the milk is left for 3 to 4 hours to allow its pH to drop to a level of 4.5-5. Afterward, rennet is added. Originally, the rennet was of animal origin, though nowadays it is produced in laboratories. The amount used is 45 milliliters of rennet per 1,000 liters of milk, representing a very small quantity. Traditionally, in the production of afuega’l pitu cheese, two processes can be followed, historically documented and related to the curdling process. It is possible to curdle without rennet by utilizing temperature differences and pH reduction. However, the issue with this curd, known in Asturian as leche presa, is that it has much less consistency. If poured into a mold with holes (barreña), the curd escapes through the openings. For this reason, a piece of cloth (trapu) is used to strain the whey when pouring the curd. If rennet is used, the curd gains greater consistency and can be directly placed into the barreñas to finish draining the whey. Rennet (cuayo in Asturian) is a digestive enzyme that enables milk coagulation, traditionally obtained from the stomach of ruminants. However, in the past, this enzyme was also extracted from the intestines of pigs, which were slaughtered at home for domestic consumption during the traditional pig-slaughtering (matanzas). The curd of Afuega’l Pitu cheese is of an acid-lactic or mixed type, as the milk coagulates due to the pH reduction caused by acidity, with rennet aiding in the process. Once the milk is placed in the curdling vat, it is left to rest for 24 hours Material Source The milk comes from pasture-based farms located in villages near the cheese factory Conecept The 'Atroncáu cheese' is one of the traditional varieties of Afuega’l Pitu cheese, produced in the region where the cheese factory is located.

Jars, boxes, urns and pots have been so important to us for so long, from the storing of food to the final resting place in the burial urn. Sometimes I toy with the idea that the pots standing there are like small temple buildings or reliquaries, ready to hold all sorts of secrets… or perhaps simply coffee.” Production Quality When the museum has sold out their pots, a new batch is made.

Title A name given to the resource Bee smoker Type The nature or genre of the resource Physical Object Description An account of the resource A bee smoker is an essential tool in beekeeping, used to calm the bees and make hive inspections and honey collection easier. The smoker produces smoke that disrupts the bees’ alarm pheromones, making them less aggressive. Manual smokers consist of a combustion chamber where fuel (such as straw or hay) is placed and lit to produce smoke; a bellows or blower, which pushes air into the combustion chamber to maintain the fire and the flow of smoke; and a spout or smoke outlet that concentrates the smoke so it can be directed toward the hive. In this case, we have both an old and a modern model of manual smokers—the latter includes an external protective grid around the combustion chamber.

Title A name given to the resource Museum: University of St Andrews Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 4 Intangible Context Two fundamental cultural practices are associated with the production of Afuega’l Pitu cheese. First, the preservation of traditional cattle farming in the areas covered by the protected designation of origin (PDO). Regulations require producers to use milk from Friesian cows or "Asturiana de los Valles" cows. Additionally, the animals must graze freely in pastures close to the facilities and be gathered for milking at sunset. Despite the challenges faced by small dairy farms today, the PDO encourages the use of milk from family-run farms. Secondly, the direct sale of the product to consumers at local markets helps preserve these weekly markets. In Asturias, since the Middle Ages, each municipality has held a weekly market where, until recently, surplus local agricultural produce was sold. However, the rural crisis and the emergence of large retail chains have threatened the survival of these traditional markets. The direct sale of cheese at these markets not only helps preserve this cultural tradition but also strengthens their significant social and economic roles at the local level.

First, it is essential to have a thorough knowledge of the raw material—local milk—since its quality is crucial to the final product. In addition, manual dexterity and strict adherence to the established times and temperatures for coagulation, ladling into molds, and curing are necessary. However, for the craftswomen who produce it, the most important aspect is to demonstrate a special sensitivity and a deep respect for the cultural tradition that this cheese represents, which entails making it correctly and following traditional methods. Although some innovations have been introduced, only those necessary to improve working conditions have been implemented, without altering the properties and characteristics of the final product. Knowledge Transfer Artisanal tradition has been passed down from generation to generation through the women of rural families, as they are predominantly the ones who have preserved this knowledge by historically being responsible for producing cheese and butter. Today, this knowledge is still transmitted within the family since there is no formal training or official course for those who wish to learn or set up a small factory, although some school workshops are offered for educational and outreach purposes. Moreover, there is literature available on the subject, and the regulations of the Protected Designation of Origin establish how the product’s manufacturing process should be carried out. Additionally, some accredited courses in food handling, among others, are offered, but most of the craftswomen learned the trade at home from their elders. Practitioners In the past, on family farms (caserías), cheese was produced both for domestic consumption and, primarily, for sale at the weekly markets held in the municipal capitals. The sale of cheese and homemade butter generated significant economic benefits that were reinvested in acquiring goods that the farms could not produce themselves, such as tools, services, or consumer products (coffee, sugar, rice, oil, etc.). The know-how for cheese making was widely disseminated among peasants, and it was generally a task carried out by women, who were responsible for both production on the farm and its transportation and sale at the markets. Since it was a family-made product, the transmission of this knowledge was passed down from mothers to daughters, and even today we can observe this tradition in numerous family-run cheesemakers, originally founded by mothers and currently maintained by daughters. Nowadays, though to a lesser extent and in an almost symbolic manner, some people still produce this cheese at home for their own consumption, much like it was traditionally made. Currently, almost all of the production is carried out by the seven cheeseries covered by the Protected Designation of Origin, most of which are family-run enterprises where women play a predominant role. Function Afuega’l Pitu cheese represents a tradition deeply connected to the region, local consumers, and the families who produce it, while also being a highly sought-after product. This artisanal cheese, whose consumption is firmly rooted in Asturias, is an essential part of the Asturian gastronomic identity. Origins and change Afuega’l Pitu is likely one of the oldest Asturian cheeses. Some of its varieties are made through the natural acidic coagulation of milk, combined with heat treatments, without the need for rennet. Although no earlier records exist, this cheese has been documented since at least the 18th century, when it was even used as currency to pay taxes. By the late 19th century, various writers had referenced it. Félix Aramburu y Zuloaga described it as the "primitive queso de puñu or afuega’l pitu, common in almost all the municipalities of Asturias." Around the same time (1900), the book Asturias by Octavio Bellmunt and Fermín Canella also mentioned it, highlighting its widespread presence throughout the region and referring to it as "the ones commonly found everywhere, called afuega’l pitu or by other names." These were the cheeses typically made on farms, distinct from those available in markets, which came from elsewhere. Traditionally, it was made using raw milk. By the 1960s, farms had specialized in dairy production, but with the rise of mass-produced packaged milk from large dairy industries and the low prices paid to producers, some farmers began using their raw material to create a processed product—cheese. Before 1980, farms were free to sell their products in local markets. However, from that year onward, public authorities began requiring sanitary registration for both facilities and production due to health concerns in Asturian livestock farms. This measure led to conflicts with the Administration, which even went so far as to ban cheese commercialization until certain hygiene standards were met, including the mandatory pasteurization of milk. Cheese production then became professionalized, marking the start of mandatory compliance with sanitary regulations. This resulted in a decline in the number of producers, who transitioned into small family-run businesses. At the same time, facilities were modernized with the introduction of pasteurization machines, r Organisations Afuega’l Pitu cheese holds the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO). In 2003, the Asturian government promoted and managed this designation to ensure the product’s survival, since—even though it was historically produced across a vast region of Asturias—its production had been in decline. Moreover, this measure was part of a strategy to revitalize the rural areas where the cheese was produced. To that end, the Regulatory Council for the Protected Designation of Origin “Afuega’l Pitu” was established, an organization in which all registered producers participate and which ensures compliance with the PDO regulations. The Asturian government demonstrates a strong commitment to local products by actively incorporating them into its tourism and gastronomic campaigns. Culinary competitions and events related to this cheese are frequently organized. Additionally, many of its producers are members of the Association of Artisan Cheesemakers of Asturias. Although there is no museum in Asturias dedicated exclusively to this product, the Museu Etnográficu de la Llechería in Morcín, which focuses on dairy production, stands out as an important center for its dissemination. Places In the production of Afuega’l Pitu cheese, we find three important elements to understand its historical and social context. A.
Traditional agrarian landscapes. The milk comes from open-pasture livestock farming. Although nowadays most cattle are intended for meat production, the Asturian landscape is dominated by meadows where cows graze for both meat and milk production. The local, high-quality grass influences the organoleptic characteristics of this cheese. Its production also contributes to the preservation of these landscapes. B.
Elevated granaries. One of the elements of traditional Asturian architecture, the elevated wooden granaries, known as 'hórreos' and 'paneras,' are connected to the production of this cheese. Traditionally, before professionalization and the advent of maturation chambers, the cheeses were aged inside these elevated granaries. In fact, one of their interior pieces, the 'cheese beam,' owes its name to its use for storing cheeses there. The cheese factory Ca Sanchu in Grau produces a long-aged variety of Afuega’l Pitu inside a 'hórreo.' C.
Traditional outdoor local markets. Since the Middle Ages, outdoor markets have been held in all the municipal capitals of Asturias, where local farm products were sold. They are an intangible cultural heritage, a meeting point for the local population, and essential for proximity commerce. Today, they still exist but are somewhat in decline due to the rise of large commercial supermarkets. Artefacts In the production of Afuega’l Pitu cheese, there are two fundamental elements which, although they retain their traditional use, are now made with modern materials. The first is the conical mold used to drain the cheese, traditionally called "barreña" in Asturias. It consists of a conical-shaped container perforated across its entire surface, acting as a strainer to separate the whey from the curd. Originally made of ceramic, nowadays they are manufactured using food-grade plastic. In domestic dairies, there used to be one or two of these molds, as milk production was smaller and intended for household consumption, but nowadays a dairy requires hundreds of barreñas to produce cheese. The second is the "garciella," the ladle used to take the curd from the tank and layer it into the molds (barreñas). This method of layering the curd in the mold is essential to give the cheese its distinctive texture. State of the practice thriving Social sustainability The practice enhances social sustainability and contributes positively to various areas. Gender equality. Most of the companies dedicated to producing Afuega’l Pitu cheese are managed by women and provide employment opportunities to other women (La Borbolla, Temia, Ca Sanchu, La Arquera, among others). These companies not only offer jobs but also play an essential role in empowering women in rural areas, strengthening their presence and fostering their development in these regions. Another key aspect is the retention of population and resources in rural areas. By being economically viable, these companies establish themselves as an essential resource for the local economy. Their work ensures the permanence of resources and population in rural areas, promoting a sustainable balance for the environment and communities. These activities not only support community development but also encourage the preservation of cultural and economic traditions unique to the region. Environmental sustainability It contributes decisively in several aspects: Use of local raw materials. Locally sourced milk is utilized, supporting the regional economy and ensuring a fresh and high-quality product. Renewable energy. Although renewable energy sources are not currently used, there is a willingness to adopt them in the near future. Some dairies have already taken steps by installing solar panels, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability. Waste management. The practice generates very little waste, mainly limited to whey, which is a biodegradable material. Efforts are underway to explore ways to use this by-product in both animal and human nutrition. Furthermore, whey is utilized as a natural fertilizer, promoting a circular economy. Proximity markets. The product is primarily marketed locally, minimizing the carbon footprint by reducing the need for long-distance transportation. Quality and sustainability assurance. It holds designation of origin seals and undergoes strict controls, ensuring both the quality of the product and its contribution to sustainability. Economic sustainability The practice contributes significantly to economic sustainability in several aspects: Job creation in isolated rural areas. The production of a high-quality food product generates job opportunities in rural communities, strengthening the local economy and stabilizing population in these regions. Redistribution of benefits in rural areas. The income generated is distributed among local traders and providers of goods and services, also benefiting farmers in the region. This promotes a more equitable and robust economy within the rural environment. Accessibility and local markets. A large portion of the product from some dairies is sold directly to the public at outdoor markets. With reduced prices, the product is made accessible to everyone. Additionally, the philosophy of these dairies focuses on offering an affordable artisanal product, fostering proximity trade and strengthening local economies.

Asturias, Spain. Place Description Asturias is a region located in the north of the Iberian Peninsula, on the Atlantic coast. It consists of an area of 10,556 km² and forms an autonomous community within the Spanish state. Geographically, it is situated at the western end of the Atlantic Biogeographic Region, with an oceanic and temperate climate characterized by mild temperatures, abundant rainfall, and high cloud cover. Its terrain is predominantly mountainous, with average slopes of 33%, featuring three distinct landscapes: the coastal plain, the interior valleys, and the high mountains. Asturian flora falls within the European Atlantic flora, with deciduous broadleaf forests being particularly notable. The capital of the region is Oviedo/Uviéu, and the population currently stands at 1,009,599, with 80% concentrated in the central metropolitan area. Historically, agriculture, livestock, and fishing have been the fundamental livelihoods of its inhabitants. In the late 19th century, industrialization developed in the central part of the province, with coal mining in the central basins and the rise of the iron and steel industry. In the rest of the community, traditional peasant agriculture persisted until the 1960s. Family farms (“caserías”) were the basis of rural settlement and agricultural production, grouping together into villages. The "casería" was the home of peasant families and included the dwelling and the buildings intended for production, as well as the cultivated lands, livestock, and rights over communal property. Traditional agriculture was geared towards the self-sufficiency of peasant families and was based on cereal production, which constituted the main sustenance, with part of the surplus being sold in local markets. In the early 20th century, with the arrival of industrialization to rural areas, cattle farming for milk and meat production was boosted, which drove the development of an important dairy industry in the region, spurred both by agricultural policies and by the regio Prim Media 1266 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Afuega'l pitu cheesemaking Type The nature or genre of the resource Intangible Description An account of the resource Afuega’l Pitu cheese is an artisanal product crafted with traditional methods in several regions of Asturias. It is made exclusively from cow’s milk—sourced from local farms and derived from either Frisona or Asturian valley breeds. This rich, fatty cheese is produced primarily through acid coagulation and can be enjoyed either fresh or aged. The name Afuega’l Pitu (which translates to “choke the throat” in the Asturian dialect) has an uncertain origin, and several interpretations have been proposed for this unusual name. One theory suggests that it may refer to the occasional difficulty in swallowing the cheese due to its uniquely compact and firm texture. Afuega’l Pitu is produced on a small scale and crafted artisanally under the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO). Currently, its annual production is approximately 125,000 kg. Afuega’l Pitu cheese with PDO is produced in four traditional varieties, which are differentiated by the type of mould used—either a truncated cone-shaped mould ("atroncau") or a gauze tied at its ends, giving it a courgette-like shape ("trapu")—as well as by the absence ("blancu") or presence ("roxu") of paprika. This results in the following varieties: atroncau blancu, atroncau roxu, trapu blancu, and trapu roxu. Additionally, there are technological differences, such as the kneading of the curd—a process typical of the trapu variety and of cheeses containing paprika (i.e., trapu blancu, trapu roxu, and atroncau roxu). The cheeses typically weigh between 200 and 600 grams and are enjoyed both fresh and ripened. Afuega’l Pitu cheese is highly esteemed for its sensory attributes. According to product specifications, it has a slightly sour taste, minimal saltiness, and a creamy yet relatively dry texture; the addition of paprika gives it a stronger, spicier flavour. Its aroma is mild, becoming more pronounced as it ripens (Piñeiro Lago, 2021, p. XI).

It's also customary to give a name to the pile, which the volonteers choose the second day (when they have "gotten to know who the charcoal pile is"). Additionally, many outside of the practice associate the stories of charring coal with the poet Dan Andersson (from neighbouring region of Dalarna), which has written poems about the practice.

It's a tacit knowledge that's required and a very sensuous type of understanding They have made a standardizations e.g. with the measurements of the wood but each year they learn something new, as they are only building one each year. How to tend to the pile with the hit of a sledgehammer and skewers, as well as understanding the different type of smoke that rises are crucial. Knowledge Transfer A volunteer group of about twelve people are meeting each year to construct the pile and tend to it. They meet at weekends in late spring to construct it. The volunteers are all doing this out of their own interest and are mostly local inhabitants. Our informant who is in charge has learnt from the previous leader, and the pile has been made annually at "Gammelvala" for 60 years. Since the pile is made for the event, it's made doing summer, but traditionally they charred during the winter. Practitioners About twelve people meet each year, mostly local people. Out of the twelve practitioners, three are under 30 years, three between 30-40, and he rest are older. All of the volunteers are male, but they have had women included in the work as well. They are welcoming to women joining the group. Function Up until the 1940's charcoal was still being produced this way in Värmland, also to support the fuel for wood gas fuelled cars during the war. Depending on what type of wood being charred, different coal is produced. Today the wood used is birch, which makes for great grill coal, and is being sold as exclusive local coal, which is a pride for the folk museum where "Gammelvala" is held. Each year, when the event "Gammelvala" starts, an inaugurator is chosen to light the pile as an honour, alternating each year between a man and a woman. A few years back it was the governor of Värmland, and this year it will be a popular comedian lightning the pile. As very few charcoal piles are made in Värmland these days, this is an event which the organization Brunskogs hembygdsgård are proud of and many visitors come to witness it. Origins and change This type of coal productions have used throughout the ages and in various forms and sizes. The charcoal production of Western Värmland (this region) has also been studied by the local ethnologist Nils Keyland (1867-1924). From being a practice that was primarily done for the iron productions at a larger scale during the 18th century, for the wood coal to extract the iron from the ore, to being a way to produce fuel during the war, the charcoal is now not used in iron production or blacksmithing, but sold as a luxurious product as BBQ coal. Organisations Brunskogs hembygdsgård, which can be translated into Brunskog's "heritage farm" or "old farmstead", or collection of older buildings, run and managed by the local heritage association. Charcoal piles have been constructed at many local "heritage farms" throughout Sweden from the last part of 20th century.. There does not seem to exist a joint organisation in Sweden that safeguards or functions as a knowledge hub for this practice. Places See organisations. It's also constructed at schools such as Sätergläntan, a school for crafts in neighbouring region Dalarna. Artefacts To make the process easier and more manageable they are using power tools to prepare the materials, such as cutting the wood. Otherwise the tools mainly used during the process are sledgehammer, iron bar and shovel. They also put on a chimney for the last part of the charring, which is also traditional but a later practice. During the event the volonteers are dressing in clothes that resemble that of a late 1800's and early 1900's cut, fabric and with the "slokhatt", a slouch hat which is a floppy felt hat usually worn by workers during that era in Sweden. Technological Threats Description Today it's only practicied for preserving. Policy Threats Description There's a lack for these types of practices. Weakened Practice Description As there are only volunteer practitioners, gathering for making one pile a year, there's a reduced practice. Loss Threats Description As fewer are practicing, there's a lack of knowledge. Fewer have their own relation to the practice, as the war years are further away where this was still a stronger practice, which weakens the cultural significance. State of the practice endangered Social sustainability Yes, it's social sustrainability in the practice for the participants and the community. Environmental sustainability It could be argued that it's actually, albeit small, a threat to the environment to practice this type of charring coal. Even though no LCA have been carried out, the more moderns ways of charring coal could be much more environmentally sustainable. Economic sustainability There's no economic sustainability, even though they sell the charred coal as a exclusive product. Place The town or city Brunskog, Värmland, Sweden Place Description Brunskog, Arvika and the west parts of Värmland is a region where art and handicrafts have a long and strong tradition and that’s still largely present today. At the turn of the century 1900’s, many Swedish artists came to the area and an artists' colony, Rackstadkolonin, was established. The new ideas and expressions these artists brought with them along with the well-established and skilled craftsmanship that already existed here have contributed to the well-known arts and crafts area Arvika is today. The arts and crafts are greatly appreciated here by both practitioners, residents and visitors and are seen as a great asset and strong brand for the area. Arvika is a town of about 14.000, and the municipality has about 25.000 habitants. Brunskog's parish has about 2.000 inhabitants.

Title A name given to the resource Making and charring a charcoal pile Type The nature or genre of the resource Intangible Description An account of the resource The charcoal clamp is a way of producing charcoal by arranging wood covered in spruce branches and "stöbbe" and is lit and chars in controlled circumstances. It's constructed by heating the wood with very little oxygen supply which makes the wood turn to charcoal instead of going up in flames and turning to ashes. The charcoal pile that is built annually at the event "Gammelvala", Brunskog, Värmland, takes about two days to build (with 12 people) and measures 4 1/2 m ∅. Depending on the wood used you can produce charcoal for grill, smithing and/or tar. The pile chars for approx. six days and up to 90% of the wood gets turned into charcoal. At least two people guard it during, at all times.

Title A name given to the resource Museum: University of St Andrews Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 4 Intangible Context The mittens are worn with the local folk costumes in the area. Also, a local ethnologist, Ulrika Jäger, is researching the connection of the symbolism of the flowers to the strong worship of Mother Mary in this area, before the reformation, when the valleys were a pilgrimage route to Nidaros, modern day Trondheim. The flowerson the mittens seem to be the same as the ones as the once symbolizing "Mary's plants". Field Worker Ulrika Jäger, Kajsa Stinnerbom Economic Threats Insufficient renumeration Technological Threats Industrial production Weakened Practice Aged practitioners,Diminishing participation,Diminishing youth interest,Halted transmission between generations,Reduced practice Loss Threats Loss of knowledge,Loss of protective status SDG Sustainable Cities and Communities,Responsible Consumption and Production External ID RV_CP_06 Knowledge To make the Dalby nålbidningn there's a special technique that's slightly different from other types of nålbindning. This particular technique is shown and mentioned as "Dalbytekniken", the Dalby technique in the book: (5.112) i "Vinterblomster. Nålbundna vantar från Dalby i Värmland" (page 36). It requiers a knowledge of "krus", embroidery, of the flowers and the local practice. The craft requiers both practical skill, cultural and traditional knowledge. Knowledge Transfer The technique and tradition are today taught by Bengtsson. She preferes teaching it personally to one pupil at the time as it's advanced and she wants to make sure she can show and teach all details. She's also held courses and taught in schools for ages 13-16 in textile craft. Practitioners Women have practices and taught this craft and it's been passed down in generations. To sell this type of crafts have before been an important way to make additional income. Today very few are making and selling these products. There's also somewhat of a notion that it's difficult and that there's a particular way to do it, which can frighten potential new practioners. Function The mitten is known for it's connection and tradition in the Klarälvdalen/ Klara river valley in the northen part of Värmland. The mitten holds an imporant meaning for the cultural heritage in the area. The particular technique and the choice of flowers are special for the region. Origins and change This technique has been documentet since the viking age. There are also reason to believe that the technique was also transfered to the region from the immigrating Finns in the northen part of Värmland during the 16- and 1700. Organisations Utmarksmuseet, "the Outfield museum", www.utmark.se. Places The area of the Klarälvdalen / Klara river valley and the parish of Dalby, Värmland. Artefacts Primarily mittens but also other garments and clothes made in the technique, and usually here also decorated with the particular flowers. Economic Threats Description There's no economy in making a pair of mittens and selling them for a resonable or even good price. Technological Threats Description It could be argued that the embroidery could be made industrially, but the nålbindning could not. Weakened Practice Description Few are practicing, few are learning, few know how to make these types of products. Loss Threats Description Loss of knowledge due to less practicing. Unsure if it has had a protected status, but it does not right now. State of the practice endangered Social sustainability The technique makes the e.g. mittens very durable and they are also made in a very high quality. Environmental sustainability 100% wool, fully biodegradable and also durable. Economic sustainability There's a large intrest for these products, but it's not economically sustainable. A pair of mittens takes about 90 hours to make. Place The town or city Sysslebäck, Sweden Place Description Sysslebäck is a small town of about 500 inhabitants in Dalby parish, Torsby municipality. The Norra Klarälvdalen is characterized by the winding river, valley and forests. Through the building tradition in agriculture and forestry, we see that the area is recognizable and reminiscent of a North Scandinavian character with a Norrland-influenced vegetation. From a historical perspective, the Klarälvdalen and the area along the banks of the Klarälven have been crossed by thousands of pilgrims heading for Nidaros, today's Trondheim.The area invites skiing, hiking and fishing. There is a rich wildlife and the area is home to one of the country's densest moose populations.

Title A name given to the resource Museum: University of St Andrews Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 4 Intangible Prim Media 1252 Context The area where Thenman grew up and lives has been traditionally and culturally connected to ceramics for several generations. There is a strong cultural connection to ceramic objects. There's also a connection to folkmusic, as many potters in the region have also been folk musicans, which has affected the music of the area since the ceramisist have been traveling to visit and work in different studios and have learnt folk music and have spread songs. Field Worker Ulrika Jäger, Sara Olsson Economic Threats Insufficient renumeration,Increased income disparity,Arduous training Technological Threats Industrial production,Surge of new technologies,Use of modern materials Policy Threats Threatening regional planning policies Weakened Practice Aged practitioners,Diminishing youth interest,Reduced practice SDG Sustainable Cities and Communities,Responsible Consumption and Production External ID RV_CP_05 Knowledge Thorough understanding of the mechanics and nature of clay, kilns, tools, glazes, chemistry (either from learning by doing or with understanding the theory too), as well as artistic skills. Knowledge Transfer The potters usually have very long, solid and specific knowledge and skills which they've gathered from education, courses and from learning by doing and learning together. Practitioners There's nine potters in Arvika Konsthantverk today, with two living outside the region. There's been prominent men and women as practicioners. Compared to earlier potters in the area, the potters today work more individually, whereas before it was more of a team effort, but they are joint in the co-op. Function Edane, Arvika, has a long tradition as an area with a strong tradition of practicing ceramists. Arvika konsthantverkare, of which Kristine Thenman is a member, has existed for over 100 years. It's a pride of the area. Origins and change The culture of pottery making comes from the fact that there's a clay vein in the area, so the history of potters there goes back a long time. There's been families that have learnt in tradition, nowadays it's taught in Organisations Rackstadmuseet and Kyrkerud folk high school (south west of this area) where it's possible to learn pottery. Places Several artisan workshops in the area as well as old pottery studios such as the Pottery museum at Övre stortorpet. Artefacts Ceramic utensils, applied arts, (plates, bowls, mugs, etc.). Everyday objects needed in a home: bowls and dishes for food and storage, jugs for drinks, candlesticks, pots for storage, for plants. Art of decorating public spaces and the home. Economic Threats Description It's difficult for the unknowing potential customer to understand the work and knowledge behind the artisans artefacts. Since it's a matter of applied arts, it's also competing with cheaper production of similar items, also due to increased income disparity. Getting to the knowledge needed to make these types of artefacts also requiers a long training. Technological Threats Description There could be argued that these are threats due to mass production of cheaper products, as well as there might be machines that can do similar products. Still the public seem to want craft as a complement industry products. Policy Threats Description Not a regional planning question, but rather on a national level, there's a lack of politics to support the area. Weakened Practice Description The practitioners are getting older and there's a reduced practice. If there's a diminishing youth interest is harder to tell. State of the practice declining Environmental sustainability Clay is bought from other countries, and it could be made with local clay since the local material is plentiful and has high quality. The glazes can have large enviormental footprints. The kilns in the area are both wood fired and electrical. Thenman and Stuart Beck expresses in an interview that they would like to se a more sustainable production that in a natural way connects with the local tradition. Economic sustainability Difficult to make a living just being a potter. Thenman and Stuart Beck has expressed that it's also irrational to think that it would be economical to make and sell the earthenware clay artefacts that are from the area (from the work that goes into the whole process) Place The town or city Edane, Arvika, Sweden Place Description Edane is a locality in Arvika municiplaity, in region Värmland, Sweden, with about 700 inhabitants. It's situated by the northen shore of lake Värmlen and also is part of the area of the clay vein in western Värmland. In the area around Arvika and Edane, several potters have lived and worked. In the late 1800's, there's was an artist colony establised in the area, and the local Arvika konsthantverk, a co-operative for applied arts and crafters, was established. At most during that time about a dozen potery studios were running. The municipality of Arvika is to this day seen as a stonghold of culture in Värmland. Arvika is a municipality of 25 000, with about 15 inhabitants/km2. The largest employer in Edane is smaller industries.

Title A name given to the resource Museum: University of St Andrews Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 4 Intangible Context One related cultural practice to the cunqueira tradition is the trade of the blacksmith (ferreiro). This craft is essential for creating tools and equipment needed for woodworking and other rural tasks. In particular, blacksmiths forge tools such as axes, chisels, and other metal implements that are crucial for the work of woodworkers, basket makers, and traditional shoemakers (madreñeros). These tools are no longer produced industrially because they are not in demand on a large scale. Therefore, the blacksmith's role remains key to the survival of many traditional crafts. However, the blacksmith trade is also facing extinction in Asturias, with few practitioners remaining, such as Alfredo in Arabal, Tineo, who is aging and working less, and a former blacksmith in Posada de Rengos who has significantly reduced his activity. The activity is also reflected in the oral tradition through local songs, where the departure of the cunqueiros, the craft itself, and other related aspects are mentioned. A collection of these songs and melodies, performed by Rosa "Cunqueira," can be found on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@rosacunqueira4419 Some examples are: “Los cunqueiros vanse, vanse; las cunqueiras tsoran, tsoran, ¡ay de mí, triste aburrida! ¿con quién voy dormir ahora?”, "The cunqueiros are leaving, they are leaving; the cunqueiras cry, they cry, oh me, sad and bored! Who will I sleep with now?" or "al llegar al alto la collada, di la vuelta a mi sombrero. Adiós pueblo de Trabau, en el corazón te llevo", "When I reach the pass, I turn my hat around, goodbye village of Trabau, I carry you in my heart."

First, the craftsman needs to observe the lunar cycle, as it is believed that cutting wood during the waning moon (cuarto menguante) results in better quality wood. The lunar phases affect the sap movement in the tree, with the sap concentrated in the roots during the waning moon, making the wood more durable. The craft requires knowledge of tree types, particularly deciduous trees, and the ideal time to cut them—during the winter when the trees are in their vegetative rest phase. The wood is then left to "bleed" or expel sap for 2-3 months to make it more resistant to damage and pests. The process of working the wood involves using basic tools like a chainsaw to cut the tree, an axe to shape the wood, a lathe to turn it, and gouges to refine the shape. Additionally, skills in drying the wood, avoiding cracks, and knowing the appropriate finishing techniques are necessary. The creation of different pieces requires varying levels of skill and time. For example, making a standard bowl might take 30-40 minutes, while more intricate pieces like "tachadeiras" or "cimbreiras" can take hours to complete. The craft requires patience and attention to detail, especially in the preparation and drying of the wood, as well as understanding the specific characteristics of different trees and their wood. The tools used are relatively simple, including a chainsaw, axe, compass, pencil, tape measure, lathe, and gouges. Knowledge Transfer This craft technique used to be passed down orally and through practice within the community itself. The practice gradually disappeared by the mid-20th century, with a pause between the 1970s and 1990s. Valdovinos Gabela was the last traditional "Cunqueiro" who had participated in transhumance in his youth, and after retiring from herding, he still made some bowls as a hobby in the 1980s. In the 1990s, Victorino García self-taught himself to revive this practice, and in 2005 he began an activity more associated with tourism and experiences through "El Rincón Cunqueiro." Víctor García, his nephew, became interested in the craft and learned from his uncle in the 2000s at the age of 12-13, later dedicating himself professionally to the trade as a freelancer from the age of 18. Víctor's mother, Rosa "Cunqueira," was a tour guide at the Muniellos Natural Reserve and started offering guided tours of the workshop and learning the craft, primarily making tambourines, drums, and castanets. Unfortunately, Victorino passed away in 2020 and Rosa in 2024, leaving Víctor as the last "Cunqueiro" knowledgeable about this practice. Following his mother's sudden passing, Víctor temporarily ceased his activities. He plans to reopen the workshop and resume his work soon, offering workshops and courses, and is willing to collaborate with the university (he previously taught five years of university extension courses) in the dissemination, promotion, and, above all, training to enable a dignified living from the craft (profitability-sustainability), helping the positive development of his land, Degaña, which he considers the most important aspect for the preservation of this traditional craft. In brief, the transmission of this craft depends on Victor Garcia's voluntary efforts to pass on this technique and, more importantly, its significance to the region. Practitioners Currently, there are no established roles or division of responsibilities based on importance or gender roles (although in the past, the craft was practiced by men in a transhumant way, as an extra source of income during the winter months, due to the difficult geography that made it hard to maintain crops and livestock to survive the cold months). This is because there is only one remaining "Cunqueiro," which is Víctor García (33 years old). Function Originally, the craft was particularly important during the colder months (from October to April) when agricultural work was less productive and the need for self-sufficiency was most critical. During this time, men would form groups to travel and sell their handmade goods, which helped supplement family incomes and reduce the burden of feeding their families, as the winters could be harsh and food scarce. Nowadays, the craft has lost much of its practical function and is valued more for its cultural significance, social appreciation, and as a tool for regional promotion by local administrations. For Víctor, the last practitioner, it has become an economic resource, one that he combines with other means to make a living. Origins and change The cunqueira (or tixileira) tradition has roots that date back to the 16th century in the southwestern region of Asturias, particularly in the municipalities of Ibias and Degaña. This craft, initially focused on wood carving, was primarily used to create domestic utensils ("tixelas"), particularly wooden tableware like "cachus" (wooden bowls), "tachadeiras" (plates), and "cimbreiras" (airtight containers), etc. The materials and tools used to create the tixelas have remained stable over time. The materials include wood from deciduous trees such as birch, walnut, ash, maple, and chestnut—native woods from the local forests, mainly from living trees. The tools are simple, including axes, compasses, pencils, rulers, the lathe, and chisels. The work has always been and remains essentially manual, relying on skill. The only modern innovations are the use of chainsaws, planers, and sanders, which ease some processes in obtaining the wood and improve the finish for sale, but the carving with the lathe and chisels remains exactly the same. Another difference is that while the craft originally focused primarily on creating tixelas, which are now less useful, Víctor, Victorino, and Rosa have diversified their products. They now also create and sell musical instruments (tambourines, pandeiros, and castanets), "madreñes" (traditional Asturian wooden shoes), and other souvenirs such as magnets and keychains. Organisations None. There is only a small "homemade" interpretation space dedicated to this practice at the Hotel El Tixileiro in Sisterna (Ibias). Places Currently, the only place is the workshop of Victor Garcia, called "La Guarida del Cunqueiro," which is located in Trabau, Degaña (temporarily closed). Artefacts Tools: The traditional tools used in this craft are quite simple and include axes, compasses, pencils, rulers, the lathe, and chisels. These are essential for shaping and carving the wood by hand, requiring a high level of skill. The lathe plays a key role in this process, allowing the practitioner to shape the wood into various forms. Machinery: The lathe, a crucial piece of machinery, can also be portable. It typically consists of a pedal made of leather strips and a flexible wooden branch. The lathe used by Victor Garcia was custom-made for him during his youth. It features a rectangular frame with several holes to place tools for convenience. The key component is the leather strap that connects to the flexible branch, allowing the piece of wood to rotate back and forth (like a seesaw). Additionally, there is a section with a hole and a fitting piece to secure the wood using pins, holding it in place while it is carved with chisels. Objects: Initially, the craft focused on creating tixelas (wooden tableware), but as these have become less practical today, the practice has diversified. Victor, Victorino, and Rosa now also create and sell musical instruments such as tambourines, pandeiros, and castanets. They also produce madreñes, traditional Asturian wooden shoes, and various souvenirs like magnets and keychains, reflecting the adaptation of the craft to contemporary needs and market demands. Technological Threats Description Substitution with other materials that are easier to work with, more ergonomic and hygienic to use than wood, and cheaper to produce on an industrial scale, such as earthenware. Policy Threats Description It doesn't seem that there is any conservation policy for the craft driven by public institutions, beyond the private initiative of Víctor García, who uses and promotes the craft as a driver of territorial development. Demographic Threats Description It's a vicious cycle; it's a remote rural area with poor communications, no public transportation, and few basic services (medical, supermarket, etc.), which leads people to migrate to the main cities in the area (Gijón, Avilés, Oviedo, Ponferrada, etc.). This results in a lack of sufficient population to invest in the sustainable development of services and infrastructure in the area. Without a population, which typically comes for the first half of August for the local festivals, it is difficult to make collective efforts to transmit and preserve the craft in relation to its logic within the territory. Weakened Practice Description The age of the practitioners is not a significant issue, as the current practitioner is 33 years old. However, the real concern is that there is only one person remaining who possesses this traditional knowledge, which poses a risk to the survival and continuity of the craft. Loss Threats Description What is being lost is the guild language they used (tixileiro or cunqueiro), as well as the knowledge of the techniques involved in the craft (such as when and which trees to fell, the drying time of the wood to improve its quality, the carving technique, how to create the lathe, etc.). There is also a loss of the significance linked to the territory, including the forests, transhumance, etc., that were integral to the practice. State of the practice endangered Social sustainability N/a. There is only one person alive with this knowledge. Environmental sustainability The practice contributes to environmental sustainability in several ways. The materials used are natural, renewable, and locally sourced. The wood comes from local forests, and efforts are made to avoid overexploitation, ensuring that only trees that are not optimal for other purposes are cut down. The practitioner is mindful of the type of wood needed for their work and prioritizes sustainable practices by cutting the "worst" trees, which are not expected to grow to their full potential, thus allowing healthier trees to thrive. The waste generated, including shavings and sawdust, is composted and repurposed for agricultural use or as fertilizer for reforestation projects, such as planting trees in degraded areas. In this way, the practice helps improve soil quality and encourages sustainable land management. In addition to these practices, the practitioner’s work does not require electricity for the crafting process itself, except for basic lighting to see while working. Natural light is usually sufficient during the day, reducing energy consumption. When electricity is needed, it comes from a standard power supply, and there is no need for energy-intensive machinery. The lack of a heating system in the workshop also reduces energy usage, supporting a low-energy, environmentally conscious approach to craftsmanship. This minimal reliance on electricity aligns with sustainable energy practices and reduces the carbon footprint of the work. Economic sustainability The practice does not significantly contribute to economic sustainability at present. The traditional craft of creating tixelas is no longer widely used, and as a result, these pieces have shifted to being more decorative rather than functional. In response to this decline, practitioners have diversified their products to include musical instruments, souvenirs, and other items. However, in order to sustain the craft, as noted by Víctor García, it is necessary to integrate it into other practices, adapt its uses, and particularly diversify income sources. This could include offerings such as tourism (workshops, tours, and classes), agriculture and livestock, and even tourism accommodation. By creating a multifaceted economic model, it would be possible to ensure a balance between sustainability and profitability for this craft in the specific region. Place The town or city El Bao (Il Bau) and Sisterna (Astierna) in Ibias; El Corralín (El Curralín) and Tablado (Trabáu) in Degaña (Asturias, Spain) Place Description Degaña, located in southwestern Asturias, has historically been linked to mining and rural life. Since Roman times, the territory was exploited for its gold deposits, and later, in the 19th and 20th centuries, coal became the main economic driver. Popular architecture and traditions reflect both Asturian and Leonese influences, and the municipality maintains a strong cultural identity based on language, music, and local festivities. The municipality is nestled in the Cantabrian Mountains and is part of the Fuentes del Narcea, Degaña, and Ibias Natural Park. Its mountainous landscape is home to beech and oak forests, with notable wildlife including the Cantabrian brown bear and the Iberian wolf. Nature is one of its main attractions, promoting rural and ecological tourism. Until the early 21st century, Degaña maintained a stable population and even stood out as one of the youngest in Asturias, with positive natural growth. However, the closure of mining operations has led to a sharp demographic decline, with the population decreasing by approximately 40%. Emigration has primarily been directed towards Oviedo, Gijón, Madrid, and other areas with better economic prospects. As a rural and historically isolated municipality, Degaña's economy was based on subsistence agriculture and livestock farming, with trade exchanges with the neighboring region of Laciana (León). Additionally, vaqueiros (nomadic herders) rented pastures for transhumant grazing. With the arrival of coal mining in the 19th and 20th centuries, the economy underwent a radical transformation, becoming the municipality’s main economic driver. However, following the decline of mining, livestock farming, forestry, and rural tourism have gained prominence in the local economy. Hunting and ecotourism are emerging as sustainable alternatives, although the municipality still faces challenges in curbing depopulation and generating economic opportunities. Regarding the tangible cultural heritage of Degaña, som Prim Media 1245 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource "Cunqueiru" or "tixileiru" handicraft Type The nature or genre of the resource Intangible Description An account of the resource The cunqueira or tixileira tradition is an ancient craft with records dating back to the 16th century, associated with a tax linked to this activity in the southwestern region of Asturias, especially in the municipalities of Ibias and Degaña, such as Sisterna, El Bao, Trabau, and El Corralín. This craft was dedicated to wood carving (usually using a lathe) to create domestic utensils, particularly wooden tableware known as "tixelas." Among these objects, the "cachus" (wooden bowls for drinking wine), "tachadeiras" (plates with an elevated center structure for cutting food), "cimbreiras" (airtight containers similar to modern tupperware), and others stood out. As for the denomination, "cunquiero" comes from the proximity to Galicia, where they were known for their work with "cuncos" or wooden bowls. However, in the early days, they preferred to call themselves "tixileiros" because they felt that the term "cunqueiro" referred only to the bowls, which they considered a reductive description. Today, the term "cunqueiro" is more common and widely accepted. Beyond the production process, the cunqueira tradition was characterized by intense commercial transhumance. During the winters, from October to April, when agriculture was less productive and to reduce the number of mouths to feed, the men of the valley formed groups of about seven people, usually family members, who would travel to other towns to sell and produce their pieces. These groups started in Bierzo due to its proximity and then spread throughout the peninsula, dividing their routes towards the Ruta de la Plata, Madrid, Galicia, Catalonia, and even Andalusia. In addition to this mobility, the cunqueiros had their own guild language, which reinforced their cultural identity. However, with the arrival of mining and the industrialization of earthenware and porcelain production, this craft began to decline, disappearing by the mid-20th century.

Material Wood, birch Natural Cultural Cultural Function The "Tachadeira" is a beautifully handcrafted wooden piece made with an ancient foot-powered lathe, a technique passed down through generations in the Cunqueiros region, between Ibias and Degaña. The name "Tachadeira" comes from "tachada," meaning a slice of meat, as it was originally used for slicing. This practical item features a wooden block in the centre, serving as a cutting board for cured meats, cheeses, or vegetables, and can also be used to serve food. Besides its unique crafting process, the Tachadeira carries the history of a culture focused on making household items, including bowls, as part of a set called "tixela." This is why the people who practiced this craft in the villages of Trabau, Il Curralín, Il Bao, and Astierna were known as "tixileiros" or "cunqueiros".

A daughter of a farming family, her childhood unfolded in the rural Asturian environment, contributing to the domestic tasks of a family farm dedicated to dairy production and cheese-making. She studied Forest Engineering at the University of Oviedo, working as such for several years on various forestry and environmental projects throughout Asturias. In 2011, after being unemployed for a few months, she decided to join her parents' family business, Filomena Martínez and José Antonio Fernández, Queisos Ca Sanchu. Nowadays, she has moved back to her hometown and runs the cheese factory together with her partner, Xel. Her full-time dedication is the small family business, her cheese factory specializing in Afuega’l Pitu cheese. External ID UNIOVI_PR_02 Knowledge Acquisition Marta learned to make cheese from her mother at the family home and also from her grandmother in the nearby village of Cubia. Cheese had always been an integral part of her family traditions, and she views the transmission of this knowledge as something natural, a genuine family legacy. From a very young age, she became familiar with the cheese-making process. Cheese production was a family activity in which even the children participated, contributing to the various tasks involved in its creation. Knowledge Transfer Marta has conducted workshops on dairy products, especially butter and cheese, aimed at students from various schools in the area. These workshops are part of educational programs designed for primary and secondary school students, where the basic processes of making butter and cheese are taught, allowing participants to create their own product. She has not provided formal training, specific courses for professionals, nor has she ever had an apprentice Field Worker Santiago Rodríguez Pérez, Llara Fuente Corripio Gender female Area Relation native Involvment full-time paid job knowledge1 Marta believes that great skill is not required to make cheese, as it is a relatively simple technical process. For her, sensitivity and awareness regarding the product being created are far more important. She does not consider it essential to have acquired the knowledge in the home where the artisan was born or to have a family tradition in the craft. In her opinion, the key is to show respect for tradition, for the generations who preserved and transmitted it, and for the production of the product in line with traditional methods. For example, the simple gesture of using the 'garciella' (ladle) to pour the cheese into molds and fill them slowly, instead of using a larger spoon or a machine to automate the process, already reflects specific qualities of the cheese and respect for its traditional production. Making it differently, in a way that does not respect traditional methods, may result in a similar product but detracts from the authenticity and attributes of the final product. According to Marta, this production method gives the cheese unique characteristics that must be protected. This issue is of great importance to the artisan. Nowadays, technological innovations even allow for modifying or adapting the flavors of cheese for different audiences through the use of flavorings, or removing the natural molds of the cheese (such as geotrichum candidum) using anti-mold products. While these practices might make the cheese more marketable, they would compromise the essence of Afuega’l Pitu cheese, which is defined by its unique characteristics. Marta believes that the product must remain true to its original nature. In fact, it is possible to clearly distinguish a cheese made according to traditional methods from one that does not follow these practices material1 The main ingredient for making cheese is cow’s milk. Additionally, rennet is used in small amounts to carry out the milk coagulation process. No other products, such as anti-mold agents, are used, allowing the cheese to naturally develop its characteristic molds. Furthermore, plastic is used for packaging, along with labels. material2 The milk comes from local farms located in villages near the cheese factory (Llamas, Santianes de Molenes), where the cows are raised grazing freely outdoors. In the past, her family had their own dairy farm dedicated to milk production. Part of that production was used to make cheese in the family business, while the other part was collected by a dairy cooperative. Currently, obtaining high-quality locally produced milk is challenging. Small dairy farms in the area are disappearing. Farmers prefer to produce beef cattle because these animals require less work than dairy farming, which demands complete dependence. Dairy farms are not profitable if they have few heads of livestock, and in the mid-mountain area where the homestead is located, it is not feasible to establish large-scale dairy farms. However, within the Protected Designation of Origin lies the municipality of Tinéu, a major dairy production center and one of the municipalities that produces the most milk in all of Spain. Nevertheless, their cheese production relies on dairy farming. Livestock farms are increasingly larger, and it could happen that they no longer supply small cheesemakers, focusing only on large cooperatives and distributors. Unfortunately, small farms that exclusively provide milk to small cheese factories are not viable, as the amount produced is too small to be profitable. Milk is purchased from dairy centers, not directly from farmers. However, they are aware of the milk’s origin because the central's truck first collects the milk from producers and then delivers a portion to the cheese factory. If they decided to make direct purchases, they would need their own truck. The possibility of having a small dairy farm has also been considered, but this would require completely rethinking their model. Producing their own milk would be a challenging endeavor. material3 The cheese factory produces hardly any cheese remnants or byproducts. All the milk received is fully processed into cheese. No surpluses are generated that require management. production1 The milk delivered to the cheese factory is stored in an outdoor tank at temperatures below 4 degrees Celsius. The following morning, it is pasteurized using a pasteurizer, subjecting it to 72 degrees Celsius for 5 seconds, which eliminates bacteria and microorganisms. Subsequently, the pasteurizer pours the milk into curdling vats, where it is maintained at an average temperature of 27-28 degrees Celsius, ideal for producing this type of cheese. Once in the vats, the milk is left for 3 to 4 hours to allow its pH to drop to a level of 4.5-5. Afterward, rennet is added. Originally, the rennet was of animal origin, though nowadays it is produced in laboratories. The amount used is 45 milliliters of rennet per 1,000 liters of milk, representing a very small quantity. Traditionally, in the production of afuega’l pitu cheese, two processes can be followed, historically documented and related to the curdling process. It is possible to curdle without rennet by utilizing temperature differences and pH reduction. However, the issue with this curd, known in Asturian as leche presa, is that it has much less consistency. If poured into a mold with holes (barreña), the curd escapes through the openings. For this reason, a piece of cloth (trapu) is used to strain the whey when pouring the curd. If rennet is used, the curd gains greater consistency and can be directly placed into the barreñas to finish draining the whey. Rennet (cuayo in Asturian) is a digestive enzyme that enables milk coagulation, traditionally obtained from the stomach of ruminants. However, in the past, this enzyme was also extracted from the intestines of pigs, which were slaughtered at home for domestic consumption during the traditional pig-slaughtering (matanzas). The curd of Afuega’l Pitu cheese is of an acid-lactic or mixed type, as the milk coagulates due to the pH reduction caused by acidity, with rennet aiding in the process. Once the milk is placed in the curdling vat, it is left to rest for 24 hours, ensuring the temperature remains constant and avoiding significant fluctuations. Nowadays, this process is carried out in a vat equipped with temperature control, which is maintained between 22 and 32 degrees Celsius. Once the curd is prepared, it is poured into molds known as barreñas. For this, a garcilla (ladle) is used, which allows the curd to be placed in layers within the molds. The process is slow and labor-intensive, as the molds must be filled one by one, working in batches of more than 100 cheeses. Nowadays, the molds, which are conical in shape, are made of food-grade plastic. In them, the curd gradually drains the whey. The cheese remains in this draining process for 24 to 48 hours, without the need for pressing. The initial result is fresh, unsalted cheese, ready for commercialization. If salted cheese is desired, a small amount of salt is manually added to the fresh cheese after unmolding it. Approximately 100 liters of milk yield around 40 cheeses, with each cheese requiring between 2.2 and 2.5 liters of milk. From this point, the processes vary depending on the type of cheese. For the Atroncáu blancu variety, the cheeses are kept in the maturation chamber for a maximum period of 20 days. The cheese maintains its conical shape and characteristic white color. In the case of Atroncáu roxu, after 24 hours of whey drainage in the barreñas, the cheeses are kneaded. For this, the fresh cheeses are placed in a kneader, where salt and paprika are added. During the kneading process, both ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. The mixture is then placed into molds using a gauze to prevent it from sticking to the mold walls. The cheese remains in the molds for one day, after which it is unmolded and transferred to the maturation chamber. Its distinctive color is reddish-orange. The Trapu blancu cheese is also made through kneading. The freshly unmolded fresh cheese is placed in a kneader. Once kneaded, it is wrapped in a cloth (trapu), which is tied to continue the whey-draining process. Afterward, it is untied and cured in the maturation chamber. The Trapu roxu is produced in a similar way to Trapu blancu, also through kneading. The difference lies in the addition of paprika to this variety during the process. Once kneaded, the cheese is wrapped in a cloth (trapu), tied to continue draining the whey, and then untied for curing in the maturation chamber. The maturation chamber is maintained at a minimum humidity of 60%. During their time there, the cheeses are turned regularly to achieve the optimal level of maturation. They are then transferred to a cold storage chamber, where they are kept at a temperature between four and ten degrees Celsius until commercialization. production2 Fundamentally, two main tools are used: the mold for curdling (barreña) and the ladle for pouring the curd into the barreña. Additionally, many others are employed, such as the pasteurizing machine, the vat for milk curdling, and the maturation chamber. production3 They are simple tools, yet essential for the production of this historic cheese. Their importance lies in the fact that, without them, it would not be possible to make this cheese. Manually pouring the curd into the molds using the ladle is a technical gesture that has been repeated throughout history and helps to give the cheese its unique organoleptic properties. production4 Electricity is essential and is used at various stages of the process. From the start, it is utilized in refrigerated tanks for milk storage, in the pasteurizing machine to heat the milk, in the curdling vat to maintain a stable temperature, in the drying and maturation chambers, in the kneading machine, and in dehumidifiers. Currently, the electricity comes from the power grid, although in the future it could be sourced from renewable energy. Marta has seriously considered this transition but faces several challenges: the cheese factory's location in a shaded area, the limited efficiency of solar panels, and the complex regulations for their installation. Perhaps the biggest issue is that the industrial refrigeration equipment requires three-phase electricity, and self-consumption renewable energy sources, for now, could only cover a small part of the electricity consumption. Moreover, the transition would require a significant investment. The workshop is heated using an aerothermal system. production5 The main waste generated by the cheese factory is the whey from the milk. This could pose a problem if the factory were located in an urban area, as it would not be possible to dispose of it via the drainage system. Part of the whey is stored in tanks, as some farmers in the area use it as animal feed, while another portion is directed to the septic tank. The cheese factory has a large septic tank, and with a spacious outdoor plot, the whey—being a biodegradable product—can be filtered through the septic tank and released into the environment. The land has sufficient absorption capacity to manage this activity. In their case, a significant portion of the surplus is used as fertilizer. The remaining waste is less significant. It is placed in trash containers for collection by the waste management service in Asturias. The management of whey is one of the major challenges for artisanal cheese factories in Asturias, of which there are many. Various projects are being developed to find new uses for whey. However, this process would require centralized management involving multiple cheese factories, as a small family business cannot handle this task alone. Whey also has potential applications for human consumption, such as a beverage, and in the production of energy drinks. workshop Marta works in a cheese factory located in the family home. It was founded by her parents in the 1980s and has undergone several renovations, expansions, and improvements over the years. Initially, they built a small facility next to the house. Later, around 1990, they constructed a larger, new building at the back of the house, which is where the cheese is currently produced. Her parents established the cheese factory when they decided to transition to professional cheese production. The workshop covers an area of approximately 80 m² and is divided into a small reception room, a restroom, a workroom, and two chambers for maturation and storage. The workroom is equipped with a pasteurizing machine, a curdling vat, several work tables (for pouring the curd into molds, kneading and preparing the cheeses, labeling, and storage), as well as stainless steel shelves with trays to collect whey while the cheese remains in the molds. Since it is a space dedicated to food production, it complies with a series of health and food regulations specific to the agro-industrial sector. Additionally, it has a traceability plan to prevent cross-contamination. products1 The Ca Sanchu cheese factory mainly produces seven products: • Fresh cheese with salt • Fresh cheese without salt (barreña) • Afuega’l Pitu cheese Atroncáu blancu • Afuega’l Pitu cheese Atroncáu roxu • Afuega’l Pitu cheese Trapu blancu • Afuega’l Pitu cheese Trapu roxu • Del Horro cheese: an Atroncáu blancu cheese with a much longer maturation process, carried out in an elevated granary (hórreo, panera), which was the traditional drying facility. products2 The main objective of all this production is its commercialization, either directly or through local sales channels, aimed at consumption. products3 The original place where these cheeses were sold, and are still sold, is the Grau/Grado Market, a weekly outdoor market where farmers used to sell surplus from their farms. Currently, Marta and her partner, Xel, continue to sell their cheeses at a stall in this market, which remains one of their most popular sales channels. Additionally, the product can be purchased in various stores across the central area of Asturias. Xel, her partner, is responsible for distributing the cheeses to small local shops, using a delivery van. products4 The only services offered are cheese transportation and distribution, as well as customer service, both in markets and for small businesses or distributors. Additionally, tourism-related services are provided, which will be detailed in the corresponding section. products5 Occasionally, tasting services were conducted, where cheese characteristics were explained to consumer and gastronomic groups, including how and at what temperature it should be consumed, and the differences between fresh, semi-cured, and del hórreo cheeses, among others. However, these activities are not frequent. products6 It caters to all types of clients, both local and international, ranging from audiences specialized in gourmet products to everyday consumers. products7 The product primarily holds the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) as its main quality seal. It also carries the Queseros Artesanos de Asturias quality seal, which encompasses all artisanal cheese producers in Asturias. Lastly, it features the 'Alimentos del Paraíso' seal, a quality mark from the Asturian public administration aimed at protecting high-quality products made in Asturias (covering all kinds of food products). It does not have an organic product label, as the milk used in its production does not hold that quality certification. tourism1 Yes, they participate in tourism-related activities on different levels. The cheese factory organizes private visits for anyone who contacts them, whether by phone or through social media. Occasionally, owners of nearby rural accommodations reach out to coordinate visits with tourists, offering them as an additional activity in the area. In collaboration with Asturias' public administration (Turismo de Asturias), they offer experiences for tourists in the form of open house days. During these visits, the cheese factory, the cheese-making processes, the production methods, and the history of Marta, her family, and the cheese are showcased. Visitors also have the chance to taste the products, providing an in-depth experience of an artisanal product. However, tourism is not their main activity and does not represent a significant source of income. They have not considered adapting the facilities for visitors, as their primary focus remains cheese production. In contrast, other cheese factories are equipped with specific infrastructures for tourism, such as internal tours, observation windows, tastings, and other services, charging visitors for these experiences. The lack of time and availability prevents them from being more involved in this area. Despite this, they have considered expanding their tourism-related activities, as the exponential growth of tourism in northern Spain could bring interesting benefits. They have considered holding open house events and activities that establish connections between the territory, the product, and society. However, they have also had negative experiences with certain tourists who do not appreciate the place, treating it as a leisure option for rainy days, similar to visiting a bar or museum. This has led them to meticulously prepare visits, only to find that some visitors failed to confirm or, having made a reservation, did not attend. These negative experiences have resulted in the cancellation of many other visits. Tourists come from both national and international backgrounds. Their perception is that international visitors (British, Australian, Scottish, etc.) tend to value the setting of the cheese factory and the work carried out there more highly. tourism2 No vivimos del turismo. Vivimos de elaborar un producto y de venderlo. A nosotros nos genera problemas, como llegar tarde a los repartos, acumular cansancio, quitar tiempo de las tareas principales... No vivimos del turista y por tanto las visitas no están profesionalizadas. Las malas experiencias con turistas que no tienen interés, o que no cancelan y no avisan, nos hace reconsiderar la posibilidad de realizar visitas partnership Currently, she participates in the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) and the association of artisanal cheesemakers. She is not involved in co-creation spaces nor does she collaborate with other artisans beyond the cheesemaking sector. In the world of Afuega’l Pitu, since it is an artisanal product with few producers, everyone knows and collaborates with one another. Marta does not organize events or work with other artisans, although she is open to doing so. For example, she would like to collaborate with Natalia, a ceramist from Woodic Cerámica (LAPONTE_PR_02), to design a ceramic barreña. However, the main obstacle is a lack of time. She also makes a veiled critique: often, these types of collaborations are more focused on social media promotion than on fostering truly fruitful and effective cooperation. On the other hand, she has carried out numerous collaborations with public institutions, such as the Grau/Grado City Council and the University of Oviedo. For instance, she takes part in the Master's in Food program developed by the Faculty of Chemistry, as well as in projects from the Faculty of Business Administration, contributing to approximately four academic collaborations per year. challenges1 Marta is very pessimistic about the future of rural areas and the business model they have developed. However, she highlights several positive aspects. She always wanted to live in a rural environment and has managed to do so: she has settled in the village and built a house, which she considers one of the best decisions of her life. Nonetheless, she is skeptical of the current consumption model, as living off artisanal production is very challenging. She feels fortunate to have a nearby local outdoor market (Mercáu de Grau/Grado), which allows her to sell a large part of her production sustainably and directly to the public. However, profitability is not high; it provides a decent income for a couple and allows them to hire one person in the cheese factory, but it does not leave room for luxuries. The capitalist consumption model focused on large retailers does not favor artisanal and high-quality products. Marta believes this model is largely incompatible with her smaller-scale business. Consumer habits tend toward mass consumption in large stores rather than supporting small producers. She has considered the possibility of "giving in" to the tourism model as a solution, although this idea does not appeal to her, as she fears it would lead to the "touristification" of rural areas, stripping them of much of their authenticity. Another challenge is pricing her products. Marta is committed to maintaining affordable prices so that her loyal customers can continue to access them. She does not want to create a luxury artisanal product exclusively for elites, but many people associate lower prices with lower quality. Her approach to producing quality cheese at an affordable price may harm her financially, but she is unwilling to make luxury goods at high costs. Moreover, she finds the idea of offering two differentiated product lines absurd, as she believes all consumers should enjoy the same product. Ultimately, this is a family business that relies on its sales. In general, Marta feels somewhat disheartened by the evolution of society and the economy, such as the closure of small shops. However, she remains hopeful that younger generations will appreciate quality, artisanal products and small businesses while questioning franchises and current consumption models. She acknowledges that returning to rural life is difficult and complex due to inadequate services. Physical stores in villages are increasingly scarce, and those that remain have limited customers. Telecommunications are poor, with inadequate internet access services. Additionally, logistical issues arise, such as package deliveries: couriers, often self-employed, avoid making deliveries to places like Ambás because traveling long distances is not profitable. This issue is also a consequence of the capitalist market system. Marta concludes that rural areas are becoming a scenic backdrop for tourists, but she acknowledges that reversing this dynamic is a complex challenge. challenges2 “Soy pesimista, porque no veo que cambien los modelos de consumo [...] Lo artesano, el producto de calidad, tien un canal de venta muy limitado. Por internet, la gente no compra alimentos, acuden a centros comerciales grandes, donde no hay presencia del producto artesano, por muchas razones, relacionadas con el capitalismo: se exigen grandes volúmenes y el pago al productor es muy pequeño. [...] Nuestra filosofía de vender un producto de calidad a un precio asequible nos puede perjudicar. El sistema debería cambiar” references Galán, J. F. (2019, May 19).
